My friend Robyn Hubbard has been teaching a Dream class in the studio.

During each 4 week session, I join the last week and share how I use the creative process to find deeper meaning in my dreams.

 

Finding symbolism through writing is powerful,

finding metaphor through image, moves us beyond the linear mind,

into our unconscious and becomes what I call

DREAMING AWAKE.

 

This is an image from a dream I had several months ago.

I had two dreams back to back with black panthers in them. 

Somehow that felt important,

so yesterday she and I met in the studio and worked some dreams together.

 

It was profound to share the process.

  1. Sheri, I had the same urge to do art yesterday with a dream-like feel…using archetypes and symbolism… I think it is good and important that we honor what comes out of us in those dreams!

  2. Irene, thanks so much for commenting. YES! The art truly helps us honor the unconscious material that is speaking to us in the dream. It’s very powerful to engage with a dream this way.
